The league of the Iroquois and other legends : from the Indian muse

HAYO-WENT-HA'S JOURNEYING. 53
Still unto wider seas away:
Ontario's swelling tide he tracked ,
Heard great Ki-ha-de's " E-wa-yea,"-
Looked down the thundering cataract ;
And mute with reverence, bowed in awe
Before that wonder strange and new,
He veiled his face, as there he saw
The form of Mighty Manito.
so the human need
Confessing
Of love that is to worship grown,
Untaught in ritual and creed
Him to behold, the Great Unknown
No less the lowliest adore ;
Who most on Oway-neo call
Do bear the likeness more and more
Of Him, the Mighty
over all.
Still on away : more noisy break
The ripples on the flowing marge ;
Till gleamed his glory-bearing wake
On stormy Erie, foaming large ;
On past each headland, island, bay;
Wherever rose a goodly land
With dusky warriors painted gay,
He drew his Chee-maun on the strand.
